Mehhh I mean @Jeff Booth comes from a highly abstract view of what bitcoin is. I'd like some more context to this clip to understand what Gloria didn't know very much about -- if it's the case she just didn't give a fuck about fringe heterodox economic theories, that's a lot different than not knowing how the software works.
In context it’s worse. He said she’s a decent coder but literally doesn’t own bitcoin or understand how it works. What he didn’t mention is that she was only made maintainer of Core because she was sleeping with the cofounder of Brink… and she was initially hired due to DEI, and caused all sorts of bugs and issues in v30.
Oooohhh 3 years later do you guys realise what Core devs did. Maybetake 3 more years for you to know what spam is. One step at a time.
We are constantly making agreements. Becoming aware of when we are presented with choice & what we're then agreeing to is important.
